Buy the Wilson Bela Pro v2 if you're competing at a high level — it's only £20-ish more now; otherwise the Arrow Hit is plenty.
The Arrow Hit at £113 is Adidas's accessible all-rounder. The Wilson Bela Pro v2 at £132 is Fernando Belasteguin's signature stick — a teardrop, medium-high balance, Infinity Core racket with Spin Effect Tech baked into the carbon face.
The honest take:
If you're a competitive player at 3.5+ level looking for spin and pop, the Bela Pro v2 earns its tag and the modest premium. If you're playing socially or still developing, the Arrow Hit will serve you better — and you won't curse your mishits as often.
